True, but when redim with/without "preserve" is used by VB, VB has to do it that way because it needs contiguous memory space. With a file, you just increase/decrease the file length (assuming disk has space) and you don't have to rewrite any data (if preserve) -- much faster. Without preserving, same principle could be used, but the data should be zero'd out; or a new file could be used.
